Saturday 18th, @ 19.30 kick off
Don't book your train yet. Forest at home on the Saturday. This could go to Friday or Sunday.
Hull. I can't see that as a high profile game. Personally I can't do friday or saturday so hoping it does move.
Forrest and County never play at home on the same day

Having read and digested the club statement and a reply from a councillor to an Alty fan, the issue now will be getting the inspector to attend the ground and sign off the repairs I assume. Likely he wasn't available at short notice to attend the ground as will have other appointments scheduled in...
Personally would have set the meeting up prior and strived to get the repair's done in time.
Southend had a rest last night because Maidenhead were struck by Covid.
If you want a ticket for Saturday from the official Alty website it says SOLD OUT.
If you investigate further, it says:
"This game is now sold out according to the capacities we currently have in place."
I suspect that it's a case of the club having suspended ticket sales until Trafford Council advise us what this week's capacity actually comprises.
I know I could be jinxing us, but I've got a positive feeling about tonight's game.
It's unusual for me as I'm a bit of a pessimist but I can see us getting something out of it.
Come on you mighty Robins!
Maybe I'm being naive, but it reads to me like a complaint from a disgruntled neighbour to the ground.
Sometimes people want to ignore the most obvious answer. And let's face it, the work needs doing.
I think you are being extremely naive, which is ironic given how quick you are to pick up on what you perceive as naivety in others.
Why on earth would a disgruntled neighbour complain about the state of the terracing on the Golf Rd? How would they even know about it? The statement from the board makes it perfectly clear that the complaint came from someone they hoped would have come to them first. That would hardly apply to a disgruntled neighbour.
When have I suggested naivety in others? Genuine question if you think I've been a bit unreasonable in the past, I'm always happy to hold my hand up.
For me, the statement ('wish they'd come to us first') doesn't sound like an insider with an axe to grind - it reads like someone that's turned up to a game and then complained - we all have members within our friend and family circles that are only happy when moaning.
I don't sign up to this 'inside knowledge' either - any visit from a member of the council with two funtional eyes would have identified the ground is a mess.
Re: signed off fine at the start of the season - responding to a complaint means you have to be shown to be doing something, not a routine inspection. Of course the outcome would be different.
Sorry for being the voice of reason and I'll be sad to see that it's an inside job if I am indeed wrong.
Somebody spots something wrong and notifies the council / whomever.
Council confirms safety work needs doing, thus confirming that we Alty fans were in an unacceptable level of danger.
Whomever spotted the defects and started the repair works, I thank you. You did the right thing whether we like it or not.
You’re in danger at every possible time in your life.
At home? Gas explosion
In the car? Car accident
Walking down the road? Hit by an asteroid
If you think some wonky walls, loose concrete and non running water to the new fan zone is “totally unacceptable” I’d suggest burying your head under a rock forever
Are you a structural engineer? What experience do.you have in the field?
I am quite happy to take my own risks in my personal life. When you're talking about public safety a very different mindset is required.
As for burying my head under a rock, perhaps that's what you have been doing as clearly the horrors of Valley Parade, Heysel and Hillsborough have passed you by. Don't come back with "it's a totally different scale', we can refer to a collapsed wall at Birmingham City leading to the death of a 15 year old. Luckily nobody was seriously hurt at Caernarfon when a wall collapsed. There will be others I can't recall right now.
Bet your fun at full-capacity football matches.
Did you write the email? Seem to be the only person happy with the disruption

Sounds like what a grass would say.
Unacceptable level of danger my arse. Anyway being honest I don't care who it was . Things happen for a reason and I think after the intial inconvenience it will be a good thing. It may also spark much needed conversation about doing more with the ground in particular the pop side which it would be amazing to rebuild it more into the car park if ever possible . Up the reds . Long live Bill long live parky
